You Could Be WOKQ’s Hometown Riser and Country Music’s Newest Superstar

Think you have what it takes to be Nashville’s next big country superstar?

Well, we’ve got an opportunity that could possibly help get you there.

In connection with Taste of Country’s Risers campaign, we are looking for the best undiscovered country music talent in New England to name as WOKQ’s Hometown Riser.

To be considered, send us a video of you or your band performing an original song along with an approved press photo. (Full instructions below).

We will be accepting applications through Dec. 15.

Starting Dec. 18, people can view the selected artists’ original song videos and then vote in our online poll on which artist they think should be WOKQ’s Hometown Riser!

The winning singer or band will then have the opportunity to compete with other Hometown Risers across the country to be featured on Taste of Country Nights with Sam Alex and TasteofCountry.com.

Good luck to all!
